Now that I spend the majority of my waking hours working on them, I am starting to spend other hours of my day dreaming about them (You would be surprised how many more Mazdas you see once you start looking for them).  Being a CorkSport engineer gives me great enjoyment in designing parts that make cars go faster and handle quicker.  However, owning a Jeep Grand Cherokee and being able to use parts I design on my own vehicle limits my options to, well, nothing.<\/p>\n<p>That being said, I have been looking into upgrading from my current ride to something a bit more work friendly, not to mention more fuel efficient (not that I don\u2019t love getting 16mpg in town).  Now that I no longer live in the land of eternal snow (Minnesota), my need for an SUV has diminished greatly (however, my love for AWD has not).<\/p>\n<p>I love the look and handling of the MS3 hatchbacks, but would really enjoy the AWD and comfort of an MS6.  That leaves me contemplating what my next vehicle and\/or next work project should be (an AWD MS3?).<\/p>\n<p>Any suggestions would be more than welcome.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.corksport.com\/blogs\/87-JakeNeedsACar\/01.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <a href=\"mailto:ja***@*******rt.com\" data-original-string=\"wjjhsax6WmUUOYeuQNSoow==27bI3SQXNnBE\/CeQwVf8SHXeMUvSc4mdKyS9RrIrfyW09Q=\" title=\"This contact has been encoded by Anti-Spam by CleanTalk.
